On Tuesday, there wasn't much to it. I felt horrible and tiered so I stayed home. Instead of the family dinner we planned we stayed home to watch a movie, but because I was tiered I went to bed at 9:00.

The next morning I had woken up to my alarm at 7:00 a.m. My eyes burned when I opened them and a shiver went down through my whole body. I couldn't move because I simply didn't have the energy. My nose was stuffed and my throat my sore. I managed to sit up but I felt to dizzy, and I knew I was gonna fall if I stood.

"moooom" I quietly groaned. She walked in the door and her eyes widened when she saw me.

"My goodness! Are you alright?" She gasped as she ran over to me.

"You're burning" She exclaimed worried trying to lay me down.

"You're pail!" she continued to describe the way I looked. My dad walked in the room. He didn't gasp or have any facial expression "We should call a doctor" He said taking iut his phone.

Soon the doctor arrived and walked into my room. She took a look at me and did all kinds of things.

"You parents worry to much, although this is a little serious. It's just the flu" she finally declared.

"I don't think she should go to school for this week at least. And give her some of this" She said handing a bottle of medicine to my parents.

"If she gets worse, I suggest you take her to the E.R." She said collecting her stuff.

Through out the day I just slept and watched movies. My mom made me several cups of tea and brought me food into bed. I suddenly received texts from Lucas.

Lucas: Where are you?

Lucas: Are you alright?

Lucas: I'm a little worried :/

I saw them on my lock screen and weakly picked up my phone, my hand exposed to the cold air. I pressed call waiting for Lucas to pick up.

"Finally" He sighed relieved

"mm, you worry, to much..." I said slowly

"Are you okay?" He questioned worried again.

"mmm, um, no" I tried to explain.

"What? Whats wrong Alaska" He raised

"Sick" I finally said.

"What?" he tried to understand me

"I'm sick with the flu" I blurted

"Oh, wow, can I see you after school?" he asked

"If you want to see me in bed like this then come over after school" I ran out of breath

"Okay, till then" He said

"Till then" I repeated, and hung up.

I opened my eyes to see Lucas come in through my door.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" He said sitting next to my feet

"I could be worse" I slightly shrugged

"Oh, Alaska stop trying to shake it off, you look horrible" He laughed feeling bad for me.

"Gee thanks Lucas, you look great too" I laughed catching my breath

"No, you look horrible as in, you look really sick" He clarified

I moaned and turned to my side "Lets watch a movie" he suggested

"Which one" I said turning to him

"The lego movie" He suggested pulling it off my shelf. He put it into my D.V.D player and we both lied on my bed, giggling to the lego movie.
